    Yusef Komunyakaa's Facing It

    Reflections From Sharon Kraus and Jeannine Johnson on "Facing It" In the poem "Facing It" by Yusef Komunyakaa, Komunyakaa uses his own experiences as a veteran in Vietnam to paint a picture to the readers of what it is like seeing the Vietnam Veterans Memorial from the viewpoint of a soldier who lived through the conflict. The critics Sharon Kraus and Jeannine Johnson argue that the wall serves as a reminder of all that is bad in Komunyakaa's life, beginning with his past military experiences which shape the social issues he still suffers with today. Along with Komunyakaa, we see the same effect with another soldier where the wall stands as a reminder to him as well. Throughout the poem, both critics seem to separate the issues into two groups.…

    Music Daniel Machado Analysis

    Music – Daniel Machado is writing the songs for the two musicals. I tapped him for this project because he’s particularly good at writing dense information-packed music in a way that’s easy for audiences to understand and enjoy. The tunes he tends to come up with are catchy, upbeat, and full of energy. However, the tunes almost always have the opposite effect when viewed from multiple angles over time. Since the story will unfold in layers, his approach is perfect for tackling the consent story line (The third story line most visible once the two stories are viewed together in the correct order).…

    Analyzing Robert Munsch's 'Love You Forever'

    Jessica Risner Heather Ward English 1101-41 October 5, 2015 “Love You Forever” Literary Analysis One of my favorite stories to read to my daughter is “Love You Forever” by Robert Munsch. The story is about a mother who sneaks into her son’s room, once he is sleeping, and sings a song to him. She sings to him these words “I’ll love you forever, I’ll like you for always, as long as I’m living, my baby you’ll be (pg. 14).” My favorite part about this story is that once her son is a teenager, and even a grown adult, she still sneaks into his room and sings her song to him.…

The song has a consistent idea that some Americans aren’t cut out for the war. “The horrors of war were well documented and broadcast-ed on television.…
